McG
This Means War (review)
I’d call this How to Lose a Spy in 10 Days, except all along I was rooting for nothing but for Reese Witherspoon to dump both Tom Hardy and Chris Pine…
This Means War (trailer)
From McG, who looks at Michael Bay’s movies and likes what he sees, only he wishes they weren’t so full of meaning and depth, and weren’t so damned feminist.
Your Highness (review)
It’s one thing to say that Hollywood scoops up indie filmmakers, chews them up, and spits out McG and Brett Ratner clones, which absolutely happens. But that’s on a whole ’nother level to what it has done to David Gordon Green. Someone took the most glorious bottle of vintage champagne and whipped up Tang mimosas.

Terminator Salvation (review)
It’s a bleak future for humanity. Or, you know, not.
question of the day: What burning question do you hope ‘Terminator Salvation’ will finally answer?
The timeline of the Terminator universe is such a mess that I wonder if John Connor even will haven existed anymore. I don’t know when Judgment Day is, I don’t know who invented Skynet or when, and I don’t know how Sarah Connor can still be alive (but cancelled) in 2009. I’m so confused! But … more…
